2. Unclear question
Is it asking if having served in the military is an important factor or whether having served honorably is a factor?

3. 60% YES
I bet there are a lot of conservatives who voted this way, too. This whole service thing is a question of character, after all. If you dind't serve because you didn't believe in it, ok. But if you joined the Guard, you do your duty and serve your full time.

Won't it be great when the repubs realize that they're prez isn't a conservative.
Has anyone else noticed that someone's eyes are a just a little too close together?

7. That question sucks. I didn't care about Clinton's military service
because we were in a time of peace and WAS NOT a war monger. I care about the chimps military service because he is a war monger. He can't have it both ways...ignore his military background AND be a war president who is getting his jolly's on. Oh well, I voted yes.

8. It does say record
which I feel is totally different than whether you served.

For a presidential candiate most every record is relevant. School record, work record, legal records, etc. Military shouldn't be any different.

Mr. Bush's ecord shows he only served nine days total in the questioned period. Heck yeah, that matters.

9. To me everything about a candidate effects my vote
Why shouldn't it. Are they suggesting that we should not know anything about our candidates? :crazy:
